This is the readme file for WOW Character Manager (WCM)

-------------------------------------
Requirements
-------------------------------------
+ e107 CMS (http://www.e107.org)

+ PHP 5.1.3+ - We make heavy use of try/catch blocks and SimpleXML functions which are only available in PHP 5.1.3 or later. We are sorry if you are running PHP4 but it will also be "end-of-life" by the end of 2007 and we are trying to make the best software possible here.

1. What is WCM?

WCM (short for WOW Character Manager) is a character management system for e107 that will allow you to import characters from the armory. It is actually the ONLY method for importing characters (other then REM) that is available. It is the character system that is used (by default) in Raid Event Manager (REM) as well.


2. Why was WCM created?

WCM evolved from the Raid Event Manager 2.x branch of development. While working on REM 2.x we noticed how the different parts of REM started becoming their own entity on the development side as more and more people requested more and more functionality in REM. Rather then go the 'bloatware' route, we decided to split REM into different parts. WCM is the character management portion of that.


3. How do you install WCM?

Easy Just download the .zip file, extract it, and upload it to your
e107_plugins directory. After you have done this, go into your plugin manager and click 'Install' and then proceed to configure WCM for your needs. MAKE SURE you change the groups that are allowed to add characters, etc.

There is 1 section to WCM:

a. Characters (e107_plugins/wcm/wcm.php)

The plugin install SHOULD create the link above and add it to your site links. If it doesn't, then please add one and point it to the file above.

You will additionally need to give write permission to the following directory
for whichever user or group your webserver runs as:

e107_plugs/wcm/images/player

You can do this by issuing a 'chmod' command through your ftp client.

If you wish to enable 'offline' mode for WCM, copy the files from the 'wcm/extras' directory into the base 'wcm' directory. the wcm.php file is coded to look for these files and add links dynamically.


4. How do you upgrade WCM?

Follow the following steps:

a. Backup your e107 database. I can not be responsible if something goes
wrong here, so make a backup first!
b. Backup all of your old player avatars (./wcm/images/player)
c. Remove your old wcm folder
d. Upload the plugin into your e107_plugins directory.
e. Restore your player avatars
f. Ensure the permissions on the new player avatars directory are set
correctly. (the user your webserver runs as needs write permission)
g. Browse to the admin panel of your e107 site and go into the Plugin Manager
h. Click the Upgrade button


5. Who is involved in WCM?

6. Will you support game 'x'?

At the moment, I only play World of Warcraft (WoW). I used to play EQ prior to that before switching but only plan on supporting WoW officially. If you have other default data or icons you would like to see included, please let me know and I will do my best to include it in the next release!


7. If you have an idea for WCM, please submit it on the WCM forum located here ->

http://codexscape.com


8. Can I change the names of the tables for WCM?

Yes! You will need to install WCM like normal... after that, you simply
have to edit the file:

<e107_plugins dir>/wcm/includes/config.php

Here you can point WCM to whatever tables you need. Keep in mind that you will have to change this again anytime you upgrade WCM.


9. Do you support other languages?

We are starting to We have a few language translators for french, swedish,
danish, and a partial in german. There are always more opportunities here for
others so check the WCM site for further details.
